==History==
New Hogan Lake and New Hogan Dam are the predecessors of the original Hogan Lake and Hogan Dam. The dam was constructed as a response to flooding of the Calaveras River which caused problems for the City of Stockton, California. It was and is still the only dam on the Calaveras River. The original Hogan dam was deemed ineffective when floods reoccurred in the 1950s. These problems with flooding led to the construction of the New Hogan Dam and New Hogan Lake by the Army Corps of Engineers who manage the lake.〔 The new Lake and Dam were built between 1960 and 1963 and now supply water to the Stockton East Water District in addition to serving as a recreational area.
